RYZHKOV, Andrii  e  LOPEZ ROCHA, Nayelli. North Korean reality as reflected in Hwang Sok-yong’s novel Baridegi: An approach from critical discourse analysis. Estud. Asia Áfr. [online]. 2018, vol.53, n.2, pp.293-318. ISSN 2448-654X.  https://doi.org/10.24201/eaa.v0i0.2402.

This paper offers an insight into a North Korean reality as reflected in the novel Baridegi by Hwang Sok-yong. It suggests a detailed follow up of country-specific terms and expressions attested in the novel. Those expressions are rendered as indicators that alert readers to the presence of broader context on human rights and social relations in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. Hence, the paper assesses implications of North Korea related terms and expressions with the assistance of critical discourse analysis, linking them to the facts described in official documents. This analysis is believed to contribute to the perception of novel background and underlying context from a specific angle.

Palavras-chave : North Korea; critical discourse analysis; Baridegi, Hwang Sok-yong; Korean literature.
